I agree - I upload to MediaFire faster than I do to RapidShare.  |

also I am downloading a batch of 40 or 50 files and at some point before it is done, I get "network failure" and it stops downloading. Meanwhile, I am running a contious ping against an internet IP and suffer no packet loss and no interuptions. So there is no network failure at my end. |
dear vindic8tor,downloading the all the files will at once will get ur connection having a time out.by the way are u using a premium account? |

Yeah, Im using a premium account. So youre saying there is a limit to haw many URLs can be loaded at once? But the RSM only makes 5 active at a time. |
if the rapidshare manager only allow to download 5,no matter how many u file u download it only will detect 5 file to download. |

My RSM disconnects too. And it is wired. I think it has something to do with the power management. When my computer sleeps - or it just the monitor powers off, it disconnects (after a long period of time - like overnight). If I keep a constant download while uploading, it stays connected - even overnight - and the monitor powering off.
I've not figured this out. Sometimes it works, sometimes it disconnects. Maybe a rapidshare server problem - maybe a power management setting... Could even be my ISP. Don't know. 
Speed is about 50 Kb/sec for uploading - wish it were faster, but I think it is my ISP - download speeds are fast.  |

I have never personally had a problem with it (touch wood) maybe just a lucky one, has any of you guys contacted Rapidshare about your problems? They do have good customer support |
Except i don't use rsm, i was talking about the standerd browser upload. So my input might not be worth much. |

ynj- routinely, Ive loaded more than 5 links at a time. On the download tab, you can set the number of parallel downloads. 1-5 or max. Mine's at max. It starts the first 5 while the others wait. As the first 5 finish, it starts the next few. No problems in the past.

Rapidshare does have crappy upload speeds and the network faliure is proberbly because you dont have the direct downloads option ticked on the Rapidshare website.
Log into your account goto settings deactivate your security lock and click the direct download option and save your settings.
This could also be a wireless problem if you are using wifi it could be timeing out the connection |
Pr00F - My security lock is off, I tried that first. Im wired to the router. This was unchecked, I checked it.
"Direct downloads, requested files are saved without redirection via RapidShare"
Whatever "saved without redirection via RapidShare" means. The last file I need has been stalled at 59% for the last 12 hours.

Klean, its definitely not a power management thing. I sit at the box of doom for hours at a time, constantly doing other things, no hibernation, no standby, no monitor timeout. I've tried up and downloading simultaneously, no effect. If I shudown the manager, and make sure rapidsharemanager.exe is killed, it will resume. Sometimes. Removing the files from the download tab, killing the manager, restarting it and then adding the files back works. Sometimes.

Pr00F, IMHO, their supports sucks. It consists of 'rubber stamped' automated replies asking a bunch of generic, 'this'll keep em busy' computer dummy questions:
your system configuration (browser, firewall, cookie-settings, etc.) might be incorrect. We suggest you should just try another browser and if possible even another computer.
If no problems occurs compare the configurations of both systems.
Delete your cache and reload the page with the error message.
Please check your browser settings if cookies are enabled.
If the cookie does exist it could be that your firewall blocks the cookies.
You have to configure the firewall settings.
A different possibility would be to try another browser.
Please note that we can not give you support for your firewall or browser.
If you can not access our website at all, please send us the following
informations:
- What error message do you get trying to access www dot rapidshare dot com?
- Which country do you live in?
- Who is your Internet Service Provider?
- What is your IP-address?
(If you do not know it, you can find out on this website:
www dot whatsmyipaddress dot com)
- Do you use a firewall?
- Do you use a proxy server?
Have a nice day, the RapidShare AG Support Team
Sounds like non sequitur humor. I expect them to add to this list:
- Do you know the atomic weight of strontium?
- Are there any extraterrestrials near your router?
- Have you had a CAT scan lately?
Being used to this, I was very specific when I stated this problem:
When I download a batch of 40 or 50 files using the RSM, it downloads half of them and then I get "network failure, check your connection" and it stops downloading. Meanwhile, I am running a continous ping against an internet IP and suffer no packet loss and no interuptions. So there is no network failure at my end.
Their response was: "Also check that your IE is able to access the internet (the RSM uses the settings from the IE to access our system) and you have administrator rights for the computer."
Hello??  Anybody home? What did I just say about my connectivity?
"Have the Premium account information been entered correctly in the
"Account/Configuration" tab?"
 Gee, I never thought of that. And where are my uploads going if it has the wrong account info?
"We hope that this solves your problems with our Download Manager" and you leave us alone so we can go back to Fallout 3.

I would still ask them about it and I have noticed Rapidshare does work better with IE than Firefox for some reason have you tried using a different browser? |
Just IE7, not particularly fond of Firefox. |
